dude i installed all the drivers but the flash tool just shows "searching". nothing else happens. i had previously installed twrp and it is still there. i have followed all the steps carefully but nothing happens :/
[Micromax A116] wrick17:
1st put the phone in USB storage mode, disconnect and then switch it off

then in sp tool go to Options -> DA Download All -> battery -> with battery

and set speed to -> force to high speed

now load the scatter loading file, tick all that u need

click on "Download" beside firmware -> upgrade

then connect ur phone, no need to remove battery

should show then.....

If all this does not work, then try this on any previous version of windows, XP worked fine for me.... :)

CALIBRATE YOUR G-Sensor

CALIBRATE YOUR G-Sensor

TO ALL THOSE WITH AUTO ROTATION PROBLEMS.. IT IS ACTUALLY THAT THE SENSORS IN THE PHONE ARE NOT CALIBRATED PROPERLY WHICH SAMSUNG DOES BEFORE SELLING THEIR PHONE WHEREAS MICROMAX WAS IN HURRY TO SELL THE PHONE TO FORGOT TO CALIBRATE THE PHONE'S SENSORS. IT IS VERY EASY AND YOU CAN DO IT BY FOLLOWING THE STEPS--

In case of Micromax A116 Calibration issue follow the steps.

Switch off the phone.Press the 3 keys together : (up and down volume key) and power key together.The user would get Two options “recovery mode and factory mode” Press the volume down key to enter to the factory mode.Now using volume down key scroll down and select the item test option by pressing the setting key.Scroll down and select the g-sensor calibration option.Now put down the phone such that its body is on the plain surface of table and the back camera is not touching the surface i.e. Back camera side is outside the plain surface.[THIS IS BECAUSE THE CAMERA IS COMING OUTSIDE THE BACKSIDE OF THE PHONE SO IT HAS TO BE KEPT FLAT AND THE LENS SHOULD BE OUTSIDE THE TABLE SURFACE AS THE PHONE SHOULD BE COMPLETELY HORIZONTAL WHILE CALIBRATING] After that press the settings key. Do not touch the phone while calibration is going on.When calibration is done it will show you the message on the screen as calibration done.Once it is done move back and scroll down to choose the reboot option, to reboot the phone.

I'd like to do the rooting on my MMX A116 but before that, want to know whether Kumar Abhishek has fixed some issues with JellySmart V 1.2 like camera and video performance and also GPS issues.
